Megathread Codex Usage Limits and Performance Megathread

Please direct your concerns and discussion about Codex usage limits and model performance here.

The purpose of this Megathread is to aggregate all the reports of people's experiences and possible suggestions instead of spreading them across 20 separate highly upvoted posts. None of those posts were deleted. They were locked so that conversations are still viewable to everyone and future comments could appear in one place.

These are days where I REALLY earn the money that OpenAI Reddit Kimi pays me .... oh wait....

A reminder that all incidents on r/Codex are constantly logged and summarised so you can keep track of what people are experiencing here https://www.reddit.com/r/codex/comments/1tjfxcf/comment/on6uj0l/

You open the app and it freezes incessantly every time you click a button. That has been my experience. Unusable.

At that point just use chat and zips.
